Guild Wars 2

Create an entrance in all the major cities, or move out of LA. Its really annoying to have to battle the loading screen and the overflow full messages.

It’s very USEFUL because you can actually group up across servers though. They either need to let you join up if you’re not standing on the same server, or leave it as-is. The overflow problem is the only reason you can even find a group right now.

+1 to this idea, but only if they add a LFG tool…

I use the LFG website, it is very helpfull, and you can join cross server. Why not make all the cities cross server then? Lion’s arch has so much to explore and look at without the LFM messages for fractals.

Because if they were in every city, you wouldn’t have any party members in an overflow in most cities. If no one is in an overflow…you can’t join up with your fellow players.

But Keiran is right. They really need an LFG tool….though they have outright said they have no plans for one. It’s a real shame, when pretty much the whole dungeon-running playerbase is asking for one…

I did use the LFG website… I ended up with a team with 2 EU people (including me) and 3 US people. And then we noticed we can’t play together, because the 2 big servers are separated.

I had to recruit in Lion Arch to finally get a team.

Make Fractals “lobby” an instance (not server bound) where you choose your tier before you enter and then you know anyone in the instance is there at your level.
This would then do away with the need to swap servers, Use LFG websites or any other trick to actually play.

Why not just let us party up without having to use an overflow. There isn’t even any overflow half of the day when US folks are sleeping.

+1, and you can actually already group up across servers for every other dungeon without a overflow, Fotm is the only dungeon that currently requires the overflow.

So please : add a fotm entrance to main cities + fix it to not require overflow to group up with other servers for it.

LA can burn to the ground no one loves you LA >:3

I’d rather they make a separate area like Heart of the Mists. Instead of going to PvP there’s a portal for fractals.

I adore LA, and that’s one reason why I do agree that stuff like this needs to be moved OUT of it. Since they added FotM the overflow time has quadrupled.

Honestly…a decent LFG/Dungeon Finder system would solve all these problems. I really hope they reconsider…

Not a bad idea…

The instructions on gw2lfg.com specifically state that NA and EU can’t group together and has separate sections for each region. Either those NA folks didn’t read the instructions and looked in the EU section or you posted accidentally posted your LFG/LFM to the NA section.

Good idea on heart of mists idea….they could move it there!

Thats not an issue with the LFG website. It is clearly split into EU and US listings. Either the people who listed the group or the peole who joined were using the wrong part of the site.

I’m a great proponent of gw2lfg.com. It’s allowed me to do far more dungeon/fractal runs than ever before. I’d certainly be getting a lot more bored, and playing less, if it werent for them essentially filling in the massive blank Anet left when they decided against a cross realm lfg tool.

A dedicated zone like there was for Urgoz’s labyrinth would be great. Even greater if it could be cross server

Yea, i have no idea why they decided to make the gate the starting point for the dungeon. Much better if you could step inside on your own, form a group inside (in a permanent overflow kind of way) and then enter the fractals proper.

So move it out of LA so what? They can advertise in LA and pay a waypoint cost to get to the new entrance? More people in LA=more chance of people getting a group faster. A dungeon finder would be better for this situation if you want to reduce the spam that comes with not having one.
